Kennametal India will present novel drilling, mining, road rehabilitation, and wear protection solutions at bauma CONEXPO 2024, with an emphasis on increasing productivity and performance to meet India’s growing infrastructure needs.

Kennametal India Limited will exhibit a comprehensive range of innovative foundation drilling, road rehabilitation, surface mining, trenching, and wear protection solutions at bauma CONEXPO 2024, one of the region’s leading trade fairs for the construction machinery, building material machine and mining machine industries, which will take place from December 11 to 14 at the India Expo Centre in Greater Noida.

MT Swamy, Regional Leader – APAC, Infrastructure Business, Kennametal India Limited says, “In line with rising infrastructure development in the country, our customers demand higher productivity and performance from their equipment. Kennametal’s offerings in road rehabilitation, mining and trenching are developed to perform in the toughest conditions while delivering optimum efficiency. We look forward to partnering with customers on their growth journeys and transforming how everyday life is built.” 

Kennametal’s Road King™ tool line is ideal for road rehabilitation due to its exceptional milling machine performance. Visitors will be able to see the RK31, RK32, RK43, and RK54 models, which feature new design improvements such as improved body, washer, and retainer design for optimal carbide tip usage, better rotation, and reduced axial play, all of which improve holder protection and retention in the current generation of tool holders. Road King’s design components extend tool life while making tooth changes simple and efficient for operators.

Kennametal will showcase its premium 38/30mm shank series conical tools and concomitant holders for hydraulic rigs and diaphragm wall cutters, as well as the KF Series quick change flat cutters, weld on teeth, and flat teeth with TC buttons, which are known for increasing productivity and overall performance. Kennametal will also demonstrate its 25mm-shank conical tool portfolio and holders, as well as a ‘core barrel ring’ built by in-house experts based on customer specifications.

Our foundation drilling conical tools with extra-tough grade KHE16, which can penetrate even the toughest rocks, will also be on show. In tests comparing it to our standard construction grade, this innovative pick features a tapered tungsten carbide tip that wears evenly with the pick’s steel body; provides increased chipping and fracture resistance as well as improved thermal properties; maintains cutting efficiency over a longer period; reduces downtime required to inspect tools and replace damaged picks; and saves money by extending the life of the machine’s holders and drilling tools.

Finally, in the surface mining solutions category, Kennametal will showcase its conical tools with the industry’s first taper tip for surface miners, which deliver new levels of performance and productivity, as well as KenCastTM wear protection solutions, which extend wear part life by up to 6X, ultimately benefiting customers by avoiding costly repairs and downtime.
